I’m just back from my penultimate run with a couple of slippery moments & my feet disappearing into some unexpected deep snow on occasions....I did think to myself what on earth am I doing running in this weather, am I crazy??? No, I’m not crazy.....I’m a runner!! 😂😁

I was out on Wednesday as the snow was coming down , young mum coming out of nursery with her little one said I must be keen (well I think that's what she said ?)

Well done! Unexpected deep snow - now I know the feeling. Brave runner! And yes, maybe a bit crazy, like we all ;)

Snap... just one more run for me too, managed yesterday in the snow by sticking to roads and running round a couple of car parks! Guess lots of people who started early Jan will be in Wk 9 now. Challenge after this is to keep going! Despite snow (or maybe beacause of? Going slowly?) so far have found Wk 9 easier that Wk 8.

I know exactly what you mean! I'm feeling the same, I'll be so proud to finish for so many reasons but want it to just keep going! 😁
